About the whole multiplayer thing, yeah, it sucks big time, haven't played it for a while, was waiting for the update so Gameloft would get rid about the hacks, since they changed a lot about the game, hence no more usable hacks at the moment, but the new system seems awful. On a related topic, I f'ing love the leaderboards right now! It feels very good when all you see are legit times and you can compete straight! Am currently ranked on the 82 position, so cheers for that, Gameloft!
OH man...I have been watching some twitch streams...and well.... that is hard to watch and not chat Very cool feature though... indeed.... RB you need to do it just for the community service it could provide some of these souls.
Yeah, the people streaming this game are really inexperienced. I can't even watch for more than a couple seconds
It is painful in a way for sure.... But that was us at some point in time. May have only been for a short time...but we were there too
Yeah, it was. Glad im not anymore. Wish i could stream to show em how its done or atleast teach them.
impression on the new update Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel ps. definitely my favourite track now.
Turbo 343, please check with your maxed-out Likan if Guiana track, compared to the previous old tracks, is as smooth as those or a bit more choppy. In the previous versions that track also gave me "choppiness headaches". I'm afraid the framerate issues have to do with the amount of things loaded onto memory. Since the new Chinese track is a "6 in 1" track, if the game loads everything of the 6 tracks onto memory, that could be causing the choppiness. On a side note, someone asked "why the new track model of having several tracks based on the same location (China)?". My guess is that it's purely a marketing process towards the Chinese market, possibly requested by the car brands. Be aware that the Chinese market is a great one for the brands depicted in this game, so it's something nice for the richest Chinese people who buy these cars in real life to have local tracks depicted in the game. That might make them buy a Likan with the spare pocket money . Makes sense...
I think i might be slightly addicted to this game. I already shouldnt be playing multiplayer but its like i cant stop playing it. So i guess my rank will never see 100 again. went from 1830 to 1780 and its only going to get worst.
My connection was lost while I was winning my 6th race in a row. Kicked out of multiplayer, lost winning streak... Doh
Wow I sure picked the worst time to delete Asphalt. Had no idea how big this update would be when I decided I was done. Don't know what I'm going to do though now that I've replaced that free space with Injustice and am unhealthily addicted. Just tried Ridge Racer since it went free, played for 20 minutes and deleted it. It was cool but after Asphalt 8 it just felt clunky and made me want to play Asphalt. Anyway, my short lived hiatus will end very soon. Hopefully my cloud save is fully intact.
I thought this will happen in a week or 2 but........ there's already one hacker in the game forgot to take a pic
HeY! GL_Ryan Lots of people are complaining of one specific curve. Personally, I think that curve ruined the entire Track. There is a curve near the Buddha statue which throws the car out of the track and is little difficult to master especially with S-Class Cars. http://www.iappnalysis.com/2014/03/asphalt-8-airborne-welcome-to-great-wall-game-review.html
Gonna need much more detail than that. User name? Type of hack you saw? Leaderboard hack, time hack, nitro hack, invincible hack? Are you sure it wasn't lag/latency? Or just someone good at nitro stringing? I ask because none of the previous hacks will work and a lot of possible ways to hack are heavily encrypted in game along with certain server side detection methods that would make it very unlikely to happen never mind so quickly and would require a substantial amount of coding skill to accomplish in such a short time. It's very important for details because there's more than just banning previous hackers or those with previous game mods involved in the new measures. Screenshot won't be necessary but user name will.
That multiple S-bend is great. Leave it as it is! It's a great shortcut but—admittedly—rather difficult with high class cars. You ride at the top of the wall (kind of crest) and if you leave it you'll fall deep. When you can't drive it go the other way. I love it. Gameloft please don't touch it. China is one of the best tracks EVER!
What did you see man? I too would be very surprised to see one this early. On a side note... the China tracks would be so hard for a previous hacker to utilize in my opinion...There are no where near as many longer runs without the need for serious input. I cannot see them doing anything but continutally crashing...even more than they did before
Anyone have trouble joining rooms? I cant seem to join any room... No matter which class. Takes forever...i think servers are down?
